Surgeons remove 63 spoons from man's stomach after he ate them for a year

Surgeons have recovered 63 spoons from a man's stomach after he ate only cutlery for over a year.

The 32-year-old from India, known only as Vijay, underwent the intense two-hour operation after he was rushed to hospital complaining of stomach ache.

It's believed he was being treated for drug addiction at a rehab centre, where it's claimed he was force-fed the spoons.

"We asked him if he ate those spoons and he agreed", Dr Rakesh Khurrana told ANI.

Vijay reportedly remains in ICU.
